Description
Get the inside look at an FBI undercover operation that exposed an Italian mafioso’s global crime network.
This is a first-person account of an FBI investigation that takes place primarily in Miami, with a few brief stopovers in New York and Italy along the way. This remarkable and entertaining story also takes the reader through the difficulties and challenges of initiating an FBI investigation, and the many twists and turns and inevitable administrative roadblocks one encounters while running a high-profile and complex FBI investigation. Interwoven throughout the story are highlights of key bureaucratic changes taking place within the FBI at the time, cultural and policy driven, which the author highlights and explains how those changes had a negative impact on not only the Paesan Blues investigation, but to the entire future of the FBI’s effectiveness and reputation.
Jerry Hester is a retired Special Agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). He led criminal investigations into violations of federal law involving organized crime, narcotics, public corruption, and counter terrorism matters.
